MANIES creating better days

 At MANE we believe beautiful hair and a meaningful salon experience can be an essential part of well-being and genuine self-confidence.

 
We also know beautiful hair won’t solve all the world’s problems. But, we believe by getting a little creative our skills as hairdressers can be used to make a positive impact in our community. 

Every year the MANE salon team chooses a local charity to support. Together we all vote on the charity that we will support for the year that is near to our hearts and or aligns with our Mane salon values.  In 2022 we decided to do things a little differently and go one step further - creating our own charity, Manies Creating Better Days. Under this banner we will be fundraising for the Wellington Free Ambulance, giving back to our industry, and sharing the love through hairdressing with our client community friends and family. 
It’s all part of our mantra ‘to create better days’. 

By simply coming to MANE and getting a haircut you’re helping us to make this difference. Thank you!

 

Supporting Lifeflight in 2024: Our Commitment to Saving Lives

At MANE, we are proud to announce that our chosen charity for 2024 is Lifeflight, an organisation dedicated to saving lives across New Zealand. Lifeflight provides time-critical aeromedical care, ensuring that approximately 30 people each week receive the urgent medical attention they need.

Why Lifeflight?

The Lifeflight team operates the Westpac Rescue Helicopter and Air Ambulance planes, which are essential in responding swiftly to emergencies. These services are crucial for individuals in remote or hard-to-reach locations, offering life-saving care when every second counts.

Our Fundraising Efforts

This year, we are committed to raising funds to support Lifeflight's mission. Here are some of the initiatives we've undertaken so far:

Annual Street Appeal

On May 2nd, our team enthusiastically participated in Lifeflight's annual street appeal. Our dedicated MANIES were out on street corners, collecting donations throughout the day. It was inspiring to see our community come together for such an important cause.

Exciting Raffles

We've also organised two incredible raffles with generous contributions from some of Wellington's local businesses. The raffles are running from July 3rd to August 27th, offering participants the chance to win fantastic prizes while supporting Lifeflight.

How You Can Help

We invite you to join us in supporting Lifeflight. You can participate in our raffles by visiting our Instagram page and clicking the link in our bio for more information and to purchase tickets. Alternatively, you can visit our salon to buy tickets in person.

Together, we can ensure that the Westpac Rescue Helicopter and Air Ambulance planes are always ready to respond in times of need. Thank you for your generosity and support.

PINK RIBBON BREAKFAST / Breast Cancer Foundation

The Manies hosted our first Pink ribbon breakfast to help raise funds and awareness for the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ's vital work. 💖 🎀

Here at Mane Salon we have supported many women with breast cancer and 100% want to give back to this excellent charity and what a fun way to do it! The money raised will be used to fund research projects and medical grants to help improve survivorship, as well as support patients and their families during treatment and recovery. ❤️‍🩹✨  
💖 With the help of our fabulous business community,   @irisstoreandstudio  /  @queenbeautysalon_nz  /  @ikoiko_nz  &  @crewdistributors we had a raffle with many great prizes, and we also want to take the opportunity to thank all of the wonderful people who have contributed to this great cause. 🫶✨

We smashed our goal and raised over $1000 for the @pinkribbonnz foundation, and we certainly couldn’t have done it without you all! It has been a pleasure to be able to give to this excellent charity and in true Manie style we are already looking forward to super sizing the event next year! Special shout out to our Manie gal @nataliemadehair, who was the driving inspiration behind our very first pink ribbon event! ☺️💖
